1/6/2017 – One of the highlights of the World Championship match between Magnus Carlsen and Sergey Karjakin in New York was the live commentary by Judit Polgar. The eloquent charm she displayed while explaining the games between Carlsen and Karjakin also comes out in a short "Blitz Quiz" video recorded during this year's Global Chess Festival, Judit Polgar's initiative to promote chess all over the world. The video is short but helps to understand why chess can make you happy.
